Subject: Re: Update From Today's Conversation

 

Thanks for the update Shirley, and I’ll assume the link issue from the file is some quirk for me only.

Would you please send me the new invite?   I’d like to see it, thanks.

So looks like we have 6 registers outside of our core team - no new ones since last time (sigh).

I will ping a couple of folks that intended to register.

 

Take Care,

Hi Shams,

 

Following up on our conversation regarding concerns presented by Alice at yesterday’s meeting.

 

1.     Courtyard Marriott Link issue – I have tested all of the “links” embedded in the invitation. Sent it out to colleagues at WPI and folks outside of WPI.   No one has reported having any issues at their end. All links are working.

2.     Registrations are holding at 8:

               Andrijcic, Eva, Virani, Shamsnaz, Squires, Alice, Fortney, Bill, Khan, Rabia White, Corina, Bilen, Sven, Pyster, Arthur

3.     Extending hotel reservations to include the night of May 19^th. At this point and time I cannot get a new contract to extended the block or rooms. This does not mean that anyone staying to attend the May 20^th Debrief Meeting and require overnight accomodations can’t reserve another night.  I’ve spoken with the Courtyard - as of today there are rooms available on May 19^th.   I would encourage folks to simply call the Courtyard in order to extend their stay.   

 

On another note:

I’ve launched more 2 campaigns (I have updated the subject line to read – Join us at the Systems Education for All Engineers INCOSE Academic Forum, March 18-19, 2015, added “Limited Seating” and included a link for Limo Service Information.  Both campaigns launched had these updates

1.     Campaign 1 – the second list that you just sent me

2.     Campaign 2 – sent to folks who did not respond from the first list

 

I will send out an update on registrations, etc to the committee next Thursday, April 2^nd.

 

Best regards,

 

Shirley

Hi, James,

 

Thank you for sending me valuable information on SE Education.

BTW, I am now in Vancouver and attended IEEE/SysCon to present a paper. The INCOSE delegates gave a very nice presentation on SE and SwE at the plenary panel discussion.

 

Looking forward to seeing you at IS2015 in Seattle.

 

Best regards,

 

Yoshi
